All Chapters of The Runaway Girlfriend of the Billionaire's Son: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Kinabukasan, mahimbing pa ang tulog ni Mae nang maramdaman niya ang marahang pag-alog sa balikat niya. Tulog pa nga ang puso at diwa niya pero hindi na niya kayang pigilan pa ang panggigising ng kaniyang Lola. Kahit hindi pa kayang ibuka ang mga mata ay pinipilit na lang niya ang sarili.“Mae, gising na, apo,” boses ng Lola niya, may halong saya na hindi niya agad maintindihan. Napakunot ang noo niya habang dahan-dahang nagmulat ng mata, inaantok pa at mabigat ang katawan. Hindi pa nga yata nakakabawi ang katawan niya dahil sa pagod nila kahapon.“May bisita ka,” dagdag ng Lola niya, at sa isang iglap ay napabangon siya nang bahagya, pilit inuunawa ang narinig. Bisita? Sino naman? tanong niya sa sarili, habang inaayos ang buhok at pilit inaalis ang antok sa mata. Pero bago pa siya makapagtanong, narinig na niya ang pamilyar na boses mula sa labas at agad siyang natigilan. Boses pa nga lang ng nasa labas ay lumalabas na ang pagiging dragon niya. Kulang na lang ay magbuga na rin siya

Kent had never hated silence this much.Back in Manila, everything looked the same, yet nothing felt the way it used to. The school remained as lively as ever, with students filling the corridors during breaks and laughter echoing through the halls, while teachers gathered in the lounge, chatting over coffee as if nothing had changed. His internship continued without interruption, steady and predictable, as though Mae had not suddenly disappeared from his life.But for Kent, each day dragged painfully slow, weighed down by something he couldn’t shake. Miss na miss na niya ang girlfriend niya. Parang iba na talaga ang naging takbo ng buhay niya mula nang hindi na niya nakikita si Mae.“Sir Kent, wala si Ma’am Mae today?” one of the teachers asked casually, stirring her coffee without much thought.Kent forced a polite smile, one he had practiced too many times already. He shrugged lightly and replied, “I’m not sure, ma’am.”It was always the same answer, and it was the only one he coul

Kent stood outside Mae’s house again, staring at the tall gate in front of him. The place looked exactly the same as the last time he came, the same guards standing near the entrance, the same quiet surroundings, and the same heavy silence that made everything feel distant.Nothing had changed.And that made everything worse.“Please, just let me talk to her,” he said, his voice low but clear enough to be heard.He tried to sound calm, but there was a slight shake in his voice that he couldn’t fully hide. He straightened his posture, forcing himself to look composed. He didn’t want them to see him as weak, not when this might be his only chance.The guards didn’t even turn their heads. They didn’t look at him. They didn’t react at all. It was like he wasn’t even there.Kent let out a slow breath, but it didn’t help. His chest still felt tight, like something heavy was pressing down on it. His hands slowly curled into fists at his sides, his nails digging into his skin.“I’m not here t

The car ride was silent, but not the comfortable kind. It was heavy, the kind that made every second feel longer than it should.Vanessa kept glancing at Kent from the passenger seat, her fingers lightly tapping against her bag without her noticing. He hadn’t said a single word since they left, not one.His eyes stayed fixed on the road, his jaw tight, and his hands gripping the steering wheel a little too hard.“Alam mo, Kent, OA ka lang talaga,” Vanessa finally said, trying to break the tension. “Hindi pa nga natin sigurado kung—”“They’re hiding her,” Kent said, his voice flat and certain.Vanessa let out a quiet breath. “Paulit-ulit mong sinasabi ’yan, pero wala ka namang proof, ’di ba? Paano kung iniiwasan ka lang talaga ng pinsan ko tapos ganyan na kalala ang mga pinag-iisip mo?”Kent didn’t look at her. “I don’t need proof to know something’s wrong.”“Hindi ganyan ang takbo ng mga bagay, Kent.”He gave a short, humorless laugh. “Yeah? Then explain it to me, because nothing abou

Hindi niya namalayang matagal na pala siyang nakatitig kay Jay. Agad niyang nasapo ang noo dahil iba na naman ang tumatakbo sa isipan niya. Ang sarap niyang kutusan!Napakurap si Mae at agad na umiwas ng tingin, parang nahuli sa isang bagay na hindi niya dapat ginagawa. Napahinga siya nang malalim at kinurot ang sarili. Dapat sa tuwing may nagagawa siyang hindi maganda, kailangan pa niyang masaktan para magising.Hindi na 'to tama, Mae, bulong niya.“Ano ba ’to! Umayos ka nga! Para ka namang tanga eh!” mahigpit niyang saway sa sarili. Kung kailangan niyang kurutin ulit ang sarili, gagawin niya para lang magising siya.Mabilis siyang tumayo at dinala ang baso sa lababo at saka nagsimulang magbanlaw nang hindi na lumilingon. Kailangan niyang mag-focus. Hindi dito at mas lalong hindi sa lalaking ’to.Tahimik na lumapit si Jay sa tabi niya. “Ako na—”“Kaya ko na ’to,” agad niyang putol. Mas matigas ang tono kaysa kanina. “Bumalik ka na lang doon, kaya ko na ’to.”Saglit na natahimik si Ja
